okay i currently live in a huge city in southern texas, and i hate it. when i grow up i want to live in the country in a small town in texas.
where almost everybody knows everybody. i'm going to college at University of Texas, and i'm ging to be a pediatrician. so i want to live in a nice house, raise a family, i want a cowboy type husband, i want a ranch, and acres of land. i also want to be the town pediatrician.
what do you think?
please dont think its unrealistic because anything is possible for me. i wanna grow up and live they way i wasnt able to when i was growing up. i want to be away from the city. i want my children to ride horses. hah i know this sounds weird, but its what i long for.
so my main question is do yall know some small towns in texas that fit my description???
kthanksyall!
As far as small towns where everyone knows everyone, go to East Texas sometime. Everyone here loves it. I think I've just spent way too much time here, so that's why I resent it, but it really is a great place to have a family and stuff. Check out Kilgore, Gladewater, Marshall, Carthage, and Hallsville. They're all around the Longview area. Longview's pretty big, but there are people with land/horses who live on the outskirts of Longview. And the school districts in Longview are good. I know it sounds like I'm totally giving away my own personal information here, so if a stalker is reading this, please note that I don't live in Longview... I'm just familiar with it.
Thats adorable, I'm going to go make fun of my girlfriend for being country now.
The one thing I can say is that your "vision" is incredibly possible as long as you can clear the pediatrician hurdle.
Thats tough, but if you focus on it, its definitely possible.
Once you get that, the rest is downhill. Small towns usually have a relatively high demand for doctors, McAllen county down south, west of Dallas, or in East Texas there are places fitting that description.
You could live somewhere here outside of Kilgore, Tyler, or Longview and there are several decent major hospitals in the area. You could live out on land you bought somewhere and commute.
I live out here, unfortunately, I'm your opposite I live in small town hell and am longing for Austin.
Though, depending on where you're from you might like Austin. Its definitely smaller than Houston and the college community is like a small city unto itself.
